Do you think a lot of people type in "Canopus" looking for "Magistracy of Canopus"? If the number of people is roughly even, then it should be a disambiguation page. If one is favored over the other, it should redirect to that page with an Otheruses template to the lesser-used page. --Scaletail 22:34, 27 July 2011 (UTC)

Well, I had earlier today decided to "be bold" and changed it to a disambiguation because I myself searched for canopus looking for the state, not the planet, but it was changed back. Of course, I have no way of knowing what people are looking for, but I suspect the state of the Magestracy of Canopus would be searched for more often than the planet of Canopus IV in that the state is a broader topic.-- LRichardson 23:15, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
